Into the Woods
This epic-adventure musical, presented by the Berklee Musical Theater Club, incorporates plots and characters of several Brothers Grimm fairy tales, and features music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by James Lapine.
Into the Woods follows a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of the characters' actions return to haunt them with disastrous results.
